CAUTION:
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY PLACE UNDUE PRESSURE ON THE
HAIRPIN COTTER PIN, CAUSING IT TO MALFUNCTION.
iii.
Do not install cables with other wiring. Do not use tie wire around the cables.
b.
Temporarily remove safety pin and test cable operation.
Never push cable.
Pull
from cylinder (S hook) end, then, pull T handle and repeat. Cable must move
freely without friction or binding. Reinstall safety pin and confirm that release
handle is now locked in place.
CAUTION:
ACCIDENTAL DISCHARGE DURING HANDLING OR INSTALLATION MAY CAUSE
SERIOUS INJURY. DO NOT REMOVE FACTORY INSTALLED SAFETY (PULL) PIN FROM
CYLINDER RELEASE ASSEMBLY UNTIL INSTALLATION IS COMPLETED AND CHECKED.
Step 5 Installation Verification and Test Requirement.
Specification / Regulation
U.S.C.G – Navigation and Vessel Inspection (NVIC 6-72, Section V, Page 71)
requires a maximum of 40 lb of force required at T handle (pull station) to activate
system discharge.
NFPA 12A - Operating devices. Para. 1-8.3.7 maximum of 40 lb of force required at
T handle (pull station) to activate system discharge.
Sea-Fire - minimum of 10 lb of force required at the S hook (extinguisher) to
activate system discharge.
Test Procedure
CAUTION:
DO NOT PUSH
(FIRE) T-Handle while installing cable assembly to avoid kinking the
cable core. Pull S-Hook at opposite end to retract the T-Handle.
After the initial routing of cable assembly is completed:
a.
Attach a scale (PN: 128-212 Cable Test Fixture) to the S-hook (cylinder end) in
place of the cylinder Release assembly.
b.
Attach a scale (PN: 128-092 Digital Scale) to the T-handle (pull station) end of the
cable assembly. A handle hook, PN: 128-115 is available to facilitate attaching the
scale. (Scales available from Sea-Fire or others may be used)
c.
Pull on the T-handle scale, monitoring the displayed force, until 10 lb (4.5 kg) is
shown on the S-hook (cylinder end) scale.
d.
Ensure that the required force at the T-handle (pull station) does not exceed 40 Ib
(18.2 kg) to achieve 10 lb (4.5 kg).
i.
If less than 40 lb (at the pull station) of force achieves the 10 lb (at cylinder),
complete the cable assembly installation per Step 6.
